@CHS_TandL @JBridgesCHS @CockshutHillSch @OLWayside They grow up too quickly! Lovely message from Rory’s new school - what a great community 🥰

[Alex Hughes @alexhughesnine]

Many thanks to all the @Ninestiles year 7 parents who heeded our advice and dropped their children off away from the main entrance, it made for a smoother start to their school day! Thanks also to the staff for their support in talking to parents about parking and road safety.

My response is less energetic but yeah, it’s good to be back!

I’ve posted this as it shows a senior politician engaging wonderfully with a primary class. Great questions, mutually well-informed discussion and no patronising waffle or incomprehensible ruminating. It can be done ✅🤓 @ela_uob

@stacykstacey @GeogMonkey Our local private school was the first I saw going public with concerns over grades being dropped. They haven’t all been offered amazing GCSE results on a golden platter.

@shadylady222 Thank you - you’ve articulated my thoughts and feelings perfectly.

@NigelWGourlay @Miss_Snuffy Not delaying may mean they are only offered the wrong college place, or none. Had we delayed A level results, more students would have been going to Unis they wanted, not what was left. I’m torn on this - if we delay GCSE results we must delay 6th form and college enrolment too.

@jenniferhod2 @Team_English1 Has anyone suggested @bencrystal ? Books and videos :)

I wrote this in March, and I did it in a lighthearted way simply because I didn’t think it was possible that anyone involved in education would even consider such an obviously and insanely stupid idea for a second.

Yet @GavinWilliamson has made insane stupidity into policy.

@veldaelliott Oh! I was the NQT/ITT coordinator for ages - did we meet?

[Andrew ✯ Kite @catchkitey]

@tes @GavinWilliamson Teacher evidence-based predicted grades are the fairest way .. anything else is stacked against students

[Lizzy Dizzy @lizzy_dowling]

@tes @GavinWilliamson Not standardised across country, often not full paper, often in class rather than exam hall, some students will not have sat a mock😡we will now have a week of confusion and fury followed by screeching U turn. Our students deserve better, follow Scottish example now

@Maire_from_NJ And the response?
